[QUOTE="DirtyRyan, post: 1362887, member: 109026"] Hey ya'll, so I'm back like poltergeist....got some answers to the questions asked, so buckle up, here we go: The switch in question: It's the S-20 model from Progressive Suspension. Apparently they have a good sense of humor, cause here's what the inside little piece of paper says that came with the switch. I thought I'd share for anyone who wanted a bit of a chuckle: "Turn on your Doo-Dad with style. Or your gizmo, whatchamacallit, or any other electric gadget your heart desires. Riders possessing a little imagination coupled with Yankee know-how (*note: the southerner in me is mildly offended*) always seem to find some electrical widget that makes riding more fun. Until now hooking that electric gizmo up was one thing; finding a way to turn it on and off was another case entirely. "The Switch" fills the creative void facing the motorcycle gadgeteer by providing a classy way to turn his Doo-Dads on AND off. [I]An added feature is that "The Switch" can be wired to turn one thing on while turning something else off.[/I] [B] "The Switch" is a single throw, double pole, 3 position precision toggle switch rated for 5 amps at 6, 12, 0r 24 volts[/B]. The handlebar mount enclosure is injection molded polycarbonate with a black satin finish and fits 7/8" and 22mm handlebars." -------------------- I like that they refer to us as, "motorcycle gadgeteers". I'll be putting that down on future resumes. Anyway, back to the operation table here: So today I got the fender. Here's what info I have on it right now: [B]UFOPlast at [url]http://www.ufoplast.com[/url] PART NO: 11-6254 KA02715026 VN-P# RR FNDR W/TAIL/STOP[/B] I typed in the part no starting with "KA" and pulled up one link. Then I used search/find to locate that particular part in the midst of all the other parts. That took me here: [url]http://www.powersportrider.com/CGI-BIN/ZCATJPG?catpub=OR0209C%20&catpage=327[/url] Ok, so this one has the white license plate light and the tail light all wired into the fender. It has three wires protruding: Brown White Green w/ White Meanwhile, I have a red, and a black connection wire sitting back there to hook those three up to. So yeah...."now what?" ALSO...I have this fancy pants hydraulic brake light switch: [B]K&S Technologies Incorporated at [url]http://www.kandstech.com[/url] Part No: 12-0010 HYDRAULIC B/L Switch 10x1.25 S/O# 49830[/B] So far, I've figured out that I'll need to "take it out of the packaging". After that, there's some directions on the back, which I can outline in another post if requested. Still kinda confused about what to do though after getting it out of the packaging. OK, so let's review what I'm wondering now: 1. Now that we know what the switch is rated for (as stated above in bold), do ya'll still think I need all the diodes, and relays (and tigers oh my!) ? 2. With or without all the diodes, and relays and tigers oh my....anyone have a wiring diagram that reflects the new found knowledge of our switches amp/volt/watt rating? 3. How does this hydraulic brake switch get hooked up in the wiring mix? 4. How do we hook up the 3 wires at the rear fender (tail/brake/license plate) to the hydraulic brake switch, and then into the rest of the wiring diagram? 5. Which came first, the chicken, or the McNugget? I look forward to hearing back from ya'll, you've been awesome helping with this so far. Keep it up....those cookies ain't far off now! [/QUOTE]
